Like Recon said, it's vacuum activated. Meaning that the motor has to be running or turning over in some way for the fuel to flow. It basically has to be "sucked" from the gas tank while in the "ON" position. In the "PRI"(prime) position fuel will flow freely without anything being done at all.

Well it is always in the "ON", and it was flowing pretty freely with out the engine on.

How do you shut it off?
It has "ON" "PRI" "RES"
No off.
It wasn't leeking a little bit, it kept leeking.

The only other way i could think of shutting it off would be take the gas line off the carb and put a plug in it till you're done.

Dry the air filter out by squeezing as much fuel as possible out of it, and check if the oil level has risen and if the oil smells of fuel. If it does, change it. However, standing up, there shouldn't be a way fuel gets from airbox to engine. When on the ground, it can run through the breather pipe into the engine.
